Old Mac for good home

2012-02-01 Thread Peter Hinchliffe
I have an old G4 tower (silver doors) looking for a good home, if anyone wants 
it for parts. If not, it's going out with the next verge pickup.

Hi again Lion WAMUGers,

I meant to type “Restart is required after download for installation to proceed”

Also don’t forget to “Repair Permissions after the installation completes.
You will likely see a few ‘Permissions differ on “Library”

Don’t get a shock if Repair Permissions says it is going to take 1HR 29Mins … I 
did … but it actually only took 5 mins ;-)

As long as you eventually see “Permissions repair complete” you are OK

Everything went smoothly and no problems noticed since installing the update 
very early this morning.

Cheers,
Ronni

Woohoo! Importantly for those of you in corporate or education environments, 
especially DET SOE4 schools, this update fixes the active directory binding 
bugs. I've just successfully joined a school Lion 10.7.3 server to the domain. 
Now to test the iMacs!

Free CD burner

2012-02-01 Thread Peter Bull
I have an Iomega external CD burner free to a good home. It has had very little 
use over the 8-9 years I have owned it. 
I can't get it to work on a PC or a Mac but the drivers on the CD are obviously 
8-9 old, but It does have the driver for OS9.
Pick up in East Cannington.

Peter Bull

Hey WAMUG Lion Users who had their User Library showing in OS X 10.7.2,

Did anyone else notice that after installing the OS X 10.7.3 update that the 
User Library is hidden again!
I only noticed it awhile ago when I needed to go into my User Library … and it 
wasn’t showing ;-)

This did not happen when I updated to OS X 10.7.2 …

Opened Terminal and entered the terminal command to show it again, and now I’m 
happy.

For anyone who has forgotten the Terminal Command.
Show User ~/Library in OS X Lion:

Launch Terminal from Spotlight or Launchpad  Utilities, and enter the
following command to show the directory:

chflags nohidden ~/Library/

Click Return

Sneaky Apple trying to mess with Ronni’s customisation of Lion.

Cheers,
Ronni
